This Album from Natalie Merchant had exceeded my expectations - which is not that tough, truth to be told; since Natalie Merchant had been very low-profile for a very long time, and I didn’t expect much from her.
Having said that, whenever a person said that something exceeded their …

When I first heard on Plan B I simply ignored his music. It seemed such an odd name I didn’t think that what he would produce would be anything that good but the more I listen the more I like this guy.
His varied style I really like, his songs …

Something a little different to some of their newer releases. Patience. A slower track, clear but very easy to listen to.

The reason why I like this …
